The first Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields, as they lay
In fields where they lay, keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east, beyond them far
And to the earth, it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
The star drew nigh to the northwest
Over Bethlehem, it took its rest
And there, it did both its stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Oh, born is the King of Israel
